The main directory of this replication archive contains materials to replicate
the results in the main body of Abrajano, Marisa; Christopher Elmendorf; and
Kevin Quinn. (n.d.) "Measuring Perceived Skin Color: Spillover Effects and 
Likert-type Scales." Journal of Politics.

ScaleRaceSpring2017clean.csv holds the survey data. The three *.R files in the
main directory replicate Tables 1, 2, and 3 in the article.

The subdirectory called:
AbrajanoElmendorfQuinn-SupplementaryInformation-Replication contains materials
for replicating the tables and figures in the Supplementary information
document. 

Note that this subdirectory contains a number of *.R files that have the
following naming convention:

MM3.2.[a1|b1|a2|b2|a3|b3|a4|b4|bench].[MM1|MM2|pairwise].R

The first bracketed term refers to the row (1 to 4) and column (a or b)
of Table 1 of the pre-analysis plan and Supplementary Information or the benchmark condition (Section 2.7 of the pre-analysis plan and Supplementary
Information).

The second bracketed term refers to the traditional MM Likert outcome (M1),
the MM Likert outcome with palette (M2), or pairwise comparisons (pairwise).

These *.R files should be run first.

After these files have been run, one should run the files MM3.2.1.R,
MM3.2.2.R, MM3.2.3.R, MM3.2.4.A.R, and MM3.2.4.B.R. This generates the results
in Table 2 of the Supplementary Information and Figures 1 through 12 in the
Supplementary Information.

The file SpilloverEffectsByFractionBlackSeen.R replicates Table 4 of the
Supplementary Information.

The file DemographicSummaryStatistics.R replicates Tables 5, 6, 7, and 8 of
the Supplementary Information.

Finally, the file SkinColorMethodsPublicationsPlots.R replicates Figures 13
and 14 of the Supplementary Information.
